Here's a scarf to match the cloudy weather: hand-printed at both ends with Xs of various sizes.

I was going for a hand-drawn, random look (conveniently..) so I carved quite a large printing block with the shapes and stamped it on this grey cotton scarf ($1 at the op-shop- hooray!)

This particular op-shop trip was initiated by our resident teenager who, since living in Wellington, has been growing her passion for secondhand clothes and eclectic style. She has an amazing eye for colour, shape and pattern and unending patience for looking through old stuff with me… : )

    Op-shopping was one of my favourite things to do as a teenager. There were quite a few little old oppies in our town, full of vintage goodies and kind old ladies.
    Love the scar too. 🙂

    I love the cross/colour combo. How fun to have someone to shop with, my family seems to lack that kind of enthusiasm!

    I love second-hand shopping too! 🙂 And I like the simple way you have made a plain scarf into something classy and unique 🙂
